He not trying to reshape the edge. He is try to fill in a deep nick or gouge. JB weld is like liquid steel that you can file and grind when its dry. Ive used it to fix holes in motorcyle crankcases. It will bond to just about any metal.

If you prefer a big ass nick in your edge slowing you down, then dont do it.

The guy doesn't know his ass from a hole in the ground, a crank case is a lot different than an edge. The best way is to take the edge down to get rid of it but then you also are taking away from the edge taking away from its lifespan. It's a give or take.

If you read the OP he says that the nick is over half way through the edge. That is something you cant file out, it needs to be filled in.
